• This book will be written from a position of commitment, but non-judgementally – there will be no trying to twist the reader’s arm or make them feel bad for eating animals – that should give it wide appeal to many conscious consumers who are curious about veganism
• The Vegan Society – which coined the term ‘vegan’ – celebrates its 80th anniversary in the year the book will appear, 2024
• The book aims to demystify veganism by bringing the fruits of the specialist research literature to a general audience
• Ultimately argues that veganism is a practice that is for the future (our future, animals’ future, the planet’s future) through the way it imagines and creates new social practices and worlds that reduce not just suffering, but also our impact on the environment
Across the world, an increasing number of people are turning to veganism, changing not just their diets, but completely removing animal products from their lives. For some, this is prompted by concerns over animal ethics; for others, it’s a response to the part played by animal agriculture in the climate crisis or an attempt to improve their own health.
Catherine Oliver shows why the veganism movement has become a powerful social, political and environmental force, taking an honest look at how we live and eat. She discusses the health and environmental benefits of veganism, explores the practical and social impacts of the shift to eating plants, and explains why veganism is not just a diet, but a way of life.
